01
Re-experience birth.
Why? What does it mean to
“re-experience birth” at planetarium?
The space of the planetarium
theatre gives sense of comfort.
That is because we all have felt it before
and is engraved deeply in our memories.
The warmth and sense of security
That takes us back to
when we were in our mother’s womb.
The theatre’s 360 degrees screen completely envelopes you
in the film creating the perfect space to recreate the warmth
and sense of security we felt in our mother’s womb.
In this program,
we travel from the birth of the universe,
to the birth of our lives to acknowledge we are all part of
the same universe.

We are made of starstuff.
The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars.
We are made of starstuff.”

Have you ever thought that you are made of starstuff?
If we are the stars, the universe is our mother.
